94Fifty is a Bluetooth-enabled basketball that measures consecutive dribbles, dribble power, shot speed, arc, and backspin. This smart sensor basketball uses its patented point-of-force technology to help athletes more rapidly develop muscle-memory. The basketball measures key motor skills, learns the strengths and weaknesses of players at any level, and adapts as the player improves. While wearing Glass, basketball players receive visual and audio shot feedback in real time for skills including shot arc, shot release speed, and backspin. With a range of over 100 yards, the basketball communicates with Glass via bluetooth to display key metrics necessary to build better shooting skills. The Glassware includes three key shooting analyses tools: Shot Arc Analyzer, Shot Release Speed Timer, and Shot Backspin Analyzer. The Glassware instantly overlays shooting data into the field of view for the shooter or coach, helping the user visualize the quality of each shot. The data makes it easier for the player to adjust mechanics, improve shooting range, develop a softer shot, or simply become a better free throw shooter. It can be used by the coach watching the player, or by the player practicing on his or her own. 94Fifty has also introduced apps that are now available for Glass, iOS 7, and Android, which provides athletes the ability to share their achievements with friends, family, and coaches via social media. 4Fifty Smart Sensor Basketball is the official smart basketball of the National Association of Basketball Coaches and has been endorsed by the Amateur Athletic Union Basketball (AAU).
